Only at the cluster level. In other words, the XML that is produced by a newer gmond should be consumable by an older gmetad and vice-versa. This would allow users to upgrade from 3.0.x to 3.1.x on a cluster by cluster basis. All nodes within a cluster would have to upgrade to gmond 3.1.x at the same time. But the whole grid would not have to upgrade. Theoretically, this should already work. We just need to test it to make sure.
